We had some of our favorite guests of 2011 over for a sort of Sklarbro Country New Year’s party. Fortunately we were recording so you can hear as Tiger Woods, Jesse Ventura, Bryant Gumbel, Owen Wilson, Tim Gunn, Bruce Jenner, and all your other favorite citizens socialize and get to know one another. If you live in Sacramento and are still searching for something to do on New Year’s Eve, be sure to pick up tickets to The Sklar Brothers at the Punch Line. Thank you to everyone who has listened to and supported Sklarbro Country in 2011! HENDERSON!

It’s finally here Laimewads! Our ONE HUNDREDTH EPISODE!!! We gave ourselves a gift for this milestone and his name is DOUG BENSON! He joins us for this magical occasion to talk about nicknames, embarrassing birthday traditions, the complexities of Twitter, weed, and pussy. A great big thank you to everyone who has listened to and supported Totally Laime whether you started at episode 1 or 99! Enjoy!

Should old acquaintance be forgot and never brought to mind? Thank you all for listening to Affirmation Nation this year. You’ve all been really kind!

And now the thrilling conclusion of the Comedy Bang Bang Best of 2011! We’re counting down the top five episodes as chosen by the listeners and throwing in some of your favorite segments and characters like The New Year Chicken, Vampire Jesus, “Deaf Al” Yankovic, Kajagoogoo, and more! Join Scott Aukerman, Paul F. Tompkins, and special guest Andy Richter on this epic-sode and come back next week for a fresh new 2012 episode of Comedy Bang Bang!

If all you got for Christmas was a dumb snow globe or a dumb daughter, here is your belated present! An hour of improv with Matt Walsh, Ian Roberts, Brian Huskey and your host Matt Besser. From restraining orders to asshole nuns, this episode has enough fun stuff to fill a Wikipedia page (however that works). As always, follow @MattBesser to tweet your suggestions and visit Bobby Matthews and Dragoon to hear more music like the stuff you heard today.

Drew Droege treated us to Glitter in the Garbage for a year here on Earwolf. Now he joins Jeff in The Wolf Den to discuss his life in the south, the mistakes he made as a young artist, the relationship between comedian and businessman, and the fallacy of the “breakout star.” Drew is smart, funny, and his Chloe videos are to die for so enjoy! Thank you to everyone who supported Earwolf and listened to The Wolf Den in 2011. See you next year!

2011 is almost over, so let’s finish it on your faces! Nick Kroll is making his Who Charted? debut this week but between his song remix ideas, his first date stories, and his tales of Fernando I think he’s acquired enough comedy credits to earn another appearance! As it is the end of the year our charts are the Top Songs That Have Inspired Who Charted? and the Top : Movies of 2011 followed by a quick game of Chart Piñata. Thank you to everyone who has listened to and supported Who Charted? this year!

We have a true return to form this episode as Bob debuts yet another of his beautiful poems. Talk about a great belated Christmas present!

A toddler sniffs all of his Christmas presents before opening them and his mom realizes something is wrong. What Tourette’s, OCD, and ADHD look like in a young child.

Just because it’s wintertime doesn’t mean we can’t break for a BEACH PARTY! And by “beach party” I mean a scientific discussion of the nature and existence of water with oceanographer Taylor Semingson. This episode is nuts, from shark attacks to methane farts to whale brains to Saturn’s rings. Enjoy!

If you have a little sister or niece there is a good chance you were forced into seeing The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn – Part 1 over the holidays. So that your torture won’t be in vain, we’ve chosen it as our next How Did This Get Made? selection! Help us our by using Eardrop to record a tagline for the movie and you could hear it on next week’s episode. See you then!

As the year winds down, let us revisit some of the highlights from Comedy Bang Bang in 2011. Joined by audience favorite Paul F. Tompkins, Scott Aukerman is counting down numbers ten through six of the viewer selected top episodes of the year. Check back in on Thursday to hear which episodes topped the list and we will see you next year at the movies!

All the tinsel and eggnog in the world can’t measure up to a friendly hug when you’re in need. Thank you to all the friends who lent their support to Bob this holiday season.

Ronna & Beverly talk to the North Shore’s preeminent “peppy” party planner, Donna Kagan, about how to celebrate the holidays with an Elegant Touch.

We’re breaking the formula this week to bring you some of the best indie rock of 2011 as decided by The Sklar Brothers, Jonah Ray, and Matt Price. Jonah and Matt are amazing comedians with awesome taste in music who join us to meander through the indie rock hits of the year while touching on stories of bad auditions, great concerts, embarrassing restaurant experiences, and tales of fatherhood. Happy Holidays!

Christmas is just around the corner and Bob’s gift to you is a multi-denominational winter prayer that embraces all faith systems and all theological identities. Happy Holidays!

Well, Santa totally cancelled on us this week but we have the next best thing. The always delightful Jordan Morris joined us to talk about holiday traditions, a special herbal cure for anxiety, the single life, and the confusing world of Katy Perry lyrics. Don’t forget to visit the Totally Laime website to hear our salute to the awesome listeners who’ve left iTunes feedback. Enjoy!

One of the most successful podcasting networks is Kevin Smith’s SModcast. After we had so much fun and learned so much with Bagged and Boarded’s Matt Cohen, it was a no brainer to invite David Kahn to The Wolf Den. He is in charge of advertising and finances for the network and he joins us this week to discuss how to build a network and how to keep it financially secure. Don’t forget to use the Earwolf Amazon link to do any last minute holiday shopping, and we’ll see you next week!

You’d think that the comedic prowess of Arnold Schwarzenegger, the acting talents of Sinbad, and the star power of a Jim Belushi cameo would make for the ultimate Christmas movie! Instead we have an illogical and unbelievable commercial masked as a movie. Join the How Did This Get Made? crew and Joe Mande for this bonus holiday episode and listen in to hear if your Eardrop made it! Happy Holidays!

It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas, especially if Christmas looks like the secret Spaniard Jonah Ray from Nerdist and The Soup! He joins us for the Billboard Holiday Album Chart, the Movie Chart, some Chart Darts and the first ever round of Kramer Party of 3. We take on Glee, the “other” Jonah, racist bullying in Hawaii, and Howard’s best Mexican meal ever. Plus a Who Charted? gift exchange, a new single from Dragon Boy Suede, and a bonus easter egg if you pay careful attention. Pick up the Who Charted? Holiday Special 2011 with Paul F. Tompkins and have a happy holiday season!

Once dinner has been eaten and presents have been opened, we’ll all need something to do with our loved ones this holiday season. Take a page from Bob and listener Matt and pop in one of these family favorites!

Tis the season! Our gift to you is an extra How Did This Get Made? celebrating the holiday classic (??) Jingle All The Way. Eardrop your best Arnold Schwarzenegger holiday greetings to @PaulScheer and you might show up on the episode! Check in later this week to hear the full episode.

Halle Berry is an Oscar winner, Catwoman is a beloved comic book icon, and Sharon Stone is the perfect villain. It would be tough to screw this movie up, but lo and behold! We watched Catwoman with Jamie Denbo and despite the occasional girl power messages and sometimes amusing witticisms, it revealed itself as an over CGI’d, poorly scripted, oddly dated mess. Tune in to hear your Eardrops and make sure you listen to our bonus minisode out today!

What do you want for Christmas? OH MY GOSH I CAN’T BELIEVE YOU ANSWERED THAT HYPOTHETICAL YOU GREEDY LITTLE JERK! Here is what you’re getting: You’re getting an episode of Professor Blastoff all about greed and you’re not going to try to pawn it for cash! Now, as long as you behave and don’t try to steal any of our money we’ll reward you with a rousing rendition of Away In The Hatch by Nathan Rivera.
